Scientists with The Nature Conservancy and partner organizations are currently in the process of transplanting up to 10,000 staghorn and elkhorn coral colonies across degraded reefs in Florida and the U.S. Virgin Islands in what is being called the largest marine restoration of its kind. If this sounds like something Ken Nedimyer would be involved with to you, you would be correct. The Coral Research Foundation is listed as one of the partners in this effort. Go Ken, go!

This was the enduring process I went through.

This Wild Caught Blue Spotted Picasso Maroon is rare and beautiful.

Its quite possibly the only specimen that exists in captivity.

I went to my home country last month and also happened to visit Kanyakumari - South most tip of India. Town is famous for Vivekananda Rock and Thiruvalluvar(famous poet statue(kinda statue of Liberty ).

Surprisingly noticed lots of corals on rock near shore and half of them submersed under water but most of them on the surface. They have been constantly hit by waves. I have taken pictures before waves hit them, almost all rocks has corals on sides and each rock at least 15-50 feet in length.

Sorry for poor pictures, just had my iphone that time.
